Yup. It's somewhere explained how and why; in general, as soon as the old (currently running) demon finds an updated image, it spawns the new one and, when this one is up and running, terminates itself; because of security reasons, I think I remember. Because of this, the new one cannot bind to the port, because the old demon is still bound to it. However, the documentation varies about how many ports are used by this mechanism, the sample client script checks three ports, the documentation says "4", and some resource summary lists: 10200..10204 -- hence: five ports. > Does MD then try any of those by default starting with the first one? MD tries the ports in order 10200 .. 10204 till there is a valid response.
